Did you do some modifications on the engine? If only on electrical or body, interior, and non on the engine, they should honor it, BUT What was their reason for not honoring the warranty? Baka when they inspected the damage, they thought sinadya yung sina or baka may tinamaan na external force?

Example ko, yung friend ko may hyundai new getz, upon inspection ng damage sa radiator niya, may butas na parang may tumama na matigas na bagay. They did not honor the claim and said it was not damaged due to wear and tear, but damaged by forces of nature.

Kung hindi casa maintained. malamang void ang warranty.

is it possible the vehicle has exceeded the chronologic and/or kilometric limits of the warranty? if yes, then yours may be a lost cause.. otherwise, you may get your lawyer to compose a demand letter and send it to the car dealer..

Its within the warranty. they acknowledge it
they blame the change oil , it which is not always within 5t its between 5-10tkm.
I've been very busy and this is not my first brand new car and i don't do change oil obsessively on time but this is the first time a car this kind has broken at less than 3 years!! One of the reason i bought it is because it was assembled in Japan and supposedly one of the best engine!!!! and what did i get!**
I got it at PRINCE MOTORS and they said that suzuki Phil is the one that denied my warramty claim

pls help

like I said on my previous post, a small interval on PMS is enough para ma-void ang warranty. your brother is your lawyer so malilibre ka sa abugado, but how about other fees.

anyway sir, please elaborate more of your problem. bakit niyo nasabing timing chain ang culprit? kung dahil maingay lang naman, nothing serious iyan. kung naputol (timing belt lang naman ang madalas maputol), ayun ang masama dahil malamang tumukod ang valves sa engine.

naka-ilan change oil ka na ba in 3 years, if 2-3 lang eh baka nga i-deny ka. covered din ba ang vitara ng 2 years free pms with oil and sparkplugs like the jimny and the swift .. sayang naman

Which branch of Suzuki?

What (if any) mods were done to the Vitara?

What is the problem with the timing chain?

madali ma technical sa warranty. modification sa engine, missed pms, etc.

[p_borj]

kailangan pa bang ime-morize iyan. let me tell you sir, lahat nang butas na pwedeng mahanap sa iyo, hahanapin nila para lang hindi mai-honor ang warranty mo. (i'm not only pertaining to Suzuki but to other casas as well). a 1k km interval on PMS sapat nang butas para sa kanila iyon.

warranty is just a word for peace of mind. when you sue a lawyer, baka mas mahal pa ang bayaran mo sa lawyer kesa sa repair bills niyo.

[mtai]

thanks for all the reply
no modification done
they said i did not do the change oil every 5tkm and thus warranty is void
all casa maintained
my brother will be my lawyer so it 's free. I just need a technical mechanic to contests their findings if any
thanks again

ano ba sabi sau ung binili mo ung car? 3yrs warranty? is your car a v6 or a v4?
ang alam ko pag bumili ka car hangang 10km lang warranty nila, labor lang warranty nila after 10km ung parts kaw na magshoulder, nasa warranty card ata nakasulat un, pag suzuki phils na nagsabi, usually mga dealer wala na magagawa.
timing chain ng grand vitara sensitive, usally 80-100km lang takbo tapos kelangan mo pasilip para di ka mamublema in the future,

grand vitara is a good car, lakas ng hatak porma pa, maintenance lang tlga kelangan. maliit lang na bato lumipad sa loob ng makina mo, putol na chain mo. kaya pag tiningnan mo engine nya, ang sikip. puro cover. so ang tanung naputol ba chain mo? what symptoms are you experiencing?

[OTEP]

Is this your first car with a timing chain? Because timing chain (and timing gear) driven vehicles inherently make more noise than a timing belt driven unit.

That's the price of toughness.
